No...the majority of players do not hate the game
"I wouldn't call it wrong when it isn't - it is. Total number of reviews of patch 0.1 and 0.2: 123k Total number of positive reviews: ≈90k Total number of negative reviews: ≈33k Total number of reviews in the last 30 days: 17.5k Total number of positive reviews: ≈6k Total number of negative reviews: ≈11k If you would actually interact with the graphs on the Steam page, you could hover over the bars and see that your numbers are not correct.

" One thing I think we can all agree on is that 0.2 was not well received by the player base, according to the Steam reviews... for what that's worth. Personally, I *really* dislike 0.2 so far, but I have yet to leave a Steam review, as I'm giving the devs time to improve it. I don't like to leave negative reviews until game devs have had a chance to listen to their player base and improve the game. Although I must admit, I'm not very optimistic about this happening after watching the recent Jonathan interviews, and watching his statement about "the Vision." It looks to me like Jonathan is more likely to huffily defend his "vision" than he is to make meaningful changes to the game. The upcoming patch, IMO, is a perfect example of this. All of the recent work Chris has done in recent patches is a drop in the ocean when compared to the overall state of the game. |

" Im so confused by what you are trying to get at here cause you are literally agreeing with what I just said but saying Im wrong. There has been a total of 123k positive reviews since launch and about 17k negative reviews since launch. Since April 4th approx 11k of the total 17k of negative reviews have been put in. I literally went bar to bar and calculated them with my phones calculator lol the numbers are not wrong mate and what you just said is literally what I've been saying lol |

" no, he isnt lmao. im shocked that people in 2025 struggle with numbers SO much. ignorance is bliss i suppose. |

" Yes, a small percentage of the daily player base since April have left negative reviews and it is a higher percentage than the previous patch. No one can deny this nor would I even attempt to deny it. Its not Jonathans vision. Its his entire teams vision and multiple interviews showcased this. Im pretty sure the next patch will be substaintal but lets be honest here. A portion of this "community" won't be happy no matter what changes they make. |

"I... Idk man... The total number of reviews since Dec 6th until April 25/28th is 123.742 (not up to date), which includes ALL positive and negative reviews. The total number of reviews, in isolation, in the last 30 days is 17.624, which includes ALL positive and negative reviews. So, your claim: "There has been a total of 123k positive reviews since launch and about 17k negative reviews since launch." is incorrect. Here, the positive reviews bar by bar, starting with Dec - ending with today: 37.030 + 12.959 + 7.699 + 5.752 + 5.263 + 4.265 + 3.597 + 2.463 + 1.987 + 1.152 + 1.331 + 981 + 783 + 517 + 537 + 482 + 764 + 2.728 + 1.646 + 844 + 208 = 92.994 Here, the negative reviews bar by bar, starting with Dec - ending with today: 8.144 + 3.311 + 2.358 + 1.803 + 1.385 + 1.059 + 974 + 903 + 750 + 425 + 365 + 291 + 258 + 203 + 181 + 150 + 283 + 6.656 + 2.650 + 1.800 + 333 = 34.282 Positive 92.994 + 34.282 negative = 127.276 The difference between "total of 123k" and 127k is only that the number on Steam did not update to the numbers of today.

" You keep repeating it wrong. Focus mate, I'm sure you can do it. "There has been a total of 123k positive reviews since launch and about 17k negative reviews since launch. Since April 4th approx 11k of the total 17k of negative reviews have been put in. " Correction : There has been a total of 123k TOTAL REVIEWS since launch and about 17k TOTAL REVIEWS RECENTLY. Since April 4th approx 11k of the total 17k recent reviews ARE NEGATIVE. Total negative review since lauch is approx 33K. The rest is as Jakker said, I'll quote him again : Total number of reviews SINCE LAUNCH : 123k Total number of positive reviews: ≈90k Total number of negative reviews: ≈33k Total number of reviews in the last 30 days: 17.5k Total number of positive reviews: ≈6k Total number of negative reviews: ≈11k https://i.imgur.com/KCQ2a4s.jpeg Dernière édition par rob_korn#1745, le 27 avr. 2025 à 23:56:17

The majority of players in the ARPG genre have been playing POE2 since it was released. That is the only stat you need to know to see what the majority of players in the genre want.
If the majority wanted what POE1 offered, the majority would be playing POE1. If the majority wanted what D4 offered, the majority would be playing D4. If the majority wanted what LE offered the majority would be playing LE. For anyone who thinks LE has more players because of the steam chart. The steam chart shows all of LE's players, but POE2 has the GGG launcher and has more players than the steam chart shows. Negative posts on the forums do not indicate what the majority want because every games forums look like this, even most played games in world. It is a shame that people use the feedback forum to complain and be ignored rather than give mature, reasonable feedback and be taken serious. Posting "the game isn't what I want it to be, I'm mad" is not feedback, it is just complaining and is not going to make anything better. People don't even want to play POE1 when they stop playing POE2 because as POE2's players decline POE1's players do not increase. Players will play a good game regardless of if it has new content or not. There are lots of games that have a lot of players than haven't had new content in a while. If people will not play a game unless it has new content, that is a red flag. If you are trying to say the state of POE2 is bad then you are saying the state of POE1 is even worse and no one should take a game in that direction because people won't even play POE1 in its current state after playing POE2. You can run whatever narratives you want, but the numbers say what the reality is and the reality is that the majority of people playing ARPG's are playing POE2. |
